Synopsis

The Lighthouse by Karen Power
A supernatural romance thriller set in a haunted, historical lighthouse.
Kian, a wannabe novelist, is on the run from her stormy marriage. She’s severely distressed by her recent miscarriage and finds herself mysteriously drawn to a deserted lighthouse on a rugged headland. The lighthouse exudes an intriguing, powerful energy from within its bleak surroundings. Kian decides to move in, believing it to be the perfect sanctuary from which to write her first novel.
On her journey, Kian meets Toby, a charismatic part-owner of the new age bookstore, and an eccentric, old clairvoyant couple, Hetta and Oscar, who suggest a book on automatic writing penned by Hetta.
Finally, driven by desperation yet overwhelmed by curiosity, Kian consults Hetta's book on how to channel a spirit guide. In doing so, she unwittingly unlocks the energy of the lighthouse's long dead keeper, Ossian, a 17th century female spirit.
KAREN POWER has a unique and fresh approach to storytelling. Her writing draws on the essence of her life experiences and inherent natural affinity with the metaphysical.
She has worked as a nurse, screenplay writer, background extra, and has written several novels and screenplays. Karen is the producer, writer and director of a short film titled “Raphael", showcasing on Prime Video Amazon, which has won several international awards.

The Lighthouse is the 13th mystery novel by P.D. James to feature her detective Adam Dalgliesh. The penultimate one in the series, it was published in 2005.

Goodreads review by Ken on July 05, 2019

The perfect type of murder mystery in a secluded location with a limited number of suspects, another in the Adam Dalgliesh series that slowly builds the tension that concludes with a strong final section. As famous novelist Nathan Oliver is found hung on the secluded Combe Island of the coast of Corn......more

Goodreads review by Tessa on August 18, 2023

"Pentru el ca poet, frumusetea naturii si a chipurilor omenesti nu fusese niciodata suficienta. Intotdeauna avusese nevoie de atelierul mizerabil de zdrente si oase al inimii, ca si Yeats." Pentru mine orice roman despre faruri si despre Cornwall este un must-read, deoarece indragesc mult farurile ia......more

Goodreads review by Karen on June 22, 2024

Catching Up… It was not uncommon for our 4th Wednesdays Mystery Readers group at the Library, to want to read and discuss this author. She always had a way of keeping us engaged with her stories. And, this one was no different. Especially with Inspector Adam Dalgliesh. So, when this was dropped off a......more

Goodreads review by Blurb on January 22, 2010

Love PD James and obviously she's a great writer, but her books (even though nominally set in the present day) always seem very old-fashioned to me. I feel like you could have almost a PD James drinking game around everything that doesn't seem like it belongs in this century. Like... Take a sip every......more
